The Roommate

The Roommate
The Roommate

Childhood friendships challenged by unexpected stay.

"The Roommate" delves into the complexities of growing up and the evolution of friendship. If you've ever reconnected with a childhood friend only to find that you've both changed, this story captures that bittersweet reality. It's a reminder of how time and distance can reshape our relationships, presented in a way that's relatable and poignant for anyone who has navigated the tricky waters of maintaining long-standing friendships.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
